Xiao Hua never knew that palace intrigue could be so dangerous??
As Su Yan listened, she lifted her eyes to look at the snake.
The snake seed to sense sothing, appearing eager to move closer, but as if it was afraid of sothing, it dared not approach.
At this mont, Su Yan heard the coughing sound of Xuanyuan Yonghao.
Turning her head to look, Xuanyuan Yonghao’s pale lips had turned sowhat blue and purple without her noticing when it happened.
It seed that the poison from that snake had not been fully cleansed; there was still residual venom in his body.
Su Yan looked at the snake again, her voice soft yet serious,
"Do you have an Inner Core?"
Xiao Hua thought to herself,
"???? Host, who are you talking to?"
The snake spat out its crimson forked tongue, hissing.
After a mont of silence, Su Yan spoke again,
"Give your Inner Core."
That tone, that manner of speaking, made Xiao Hua wonder inside,
’Could it be... there’s another system that it can’t see??’
As Xiao Hua was lost in thought, she saw the snake’s body begin to twist and, with a cough, it spat out a bloodied Inner Core.
Following that, the red and black snake coiled its tail around the object it had spat out and slithered in front of Su Yan.
Just as Su Yan reached out to take it, the red and black snake, as if unable to control itself, moved its head closer and opened its bloody jaws as if to bite.
But then... as the snake’s head ca close to her fair hand, it rely extended its red forked tongue, and licked the pale yellow powder clean off Su Yan’s hand.
The next second, it placed its Inner Core obediently into Su Yan’s hand.
Su Yan, in front of the red and black snake, bit into the Inner Core.
The taste of black blood, bitter and acrid, imdiately spread in her mouth.
She pushed Xuanyuan Yonghao against the wall, and the next second, her blood-stained lips kissed his.
Xuanyuan Yonghao lifted his eyelids slightly to look at the woman before him.
Bitterness and bloodiness spread in his mouth.
After a while, Su Yan let go, lifted her head, and looked at him seriously.
"Do you feel a bit better now?"
Xuanyuan Yonghao’s eyelids drooped, looking at Su Yan’s moist lips, his eyes pitch black,
His throat rolled,
"No."
Su Yan, confused, looked at the Inner Core in her hand and then at Xuanyuan Yonghao. She held the Inner Core to his lips,
"Try biting it yourself."
The sll of blood assaulted his nostrils; he turned his head slightly, the refusal apparent.
The next second, his voice lowered, and with a face that looked frail enough to arouse pity, he made an unreasonable request,
"Feed it to ."
At this ti, the red and black snake had sohow made its way over,
"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss!!"
The snake spat out its tongue and it was unclear what it was trying to say.
Then, Su Yan looked at the snake and then at Xuanyuan Yonghao, and she said seriously to the snake,
"Your Inner Core doesn’t seem to be detoxifying."
Upon hearing this, the red and black snake seed a bit agitated and wriggled its body,
"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss!!"
Su Yan took another look at the Inner Core in her hand, puzzled,
"If it truly detoxifies all poisons, why has it not had any effect on him?"
The snake glared with its lantern-like eyes, angrily glaring at Xuanyuan Yonghao, fuming.
"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss!!"
Xuanyuan Yonghao, watching this conversation between the woman and the snake, was quite surprised at first, but now seeing them lost in their interaction... he sowhat wanted to strangle the snake.
He leaned the greater half of his body on Su Yan, a large furry cape enveloping them both.
His head rested on her shoulder,
"Can you understand what this snake is saying?"
"Yes, I can understand it."
"What is the snake saying to you?"
Su Yan turned to look at him, obediently repeating,
"It says you are lying, just to bite its Inner Core again."
